One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Fried egg without breaking the yolk! Amazing, still don´t believe it!

Teach, Learn, Share

CS Project is great way to get good experiences. However, It would be good that members begin to understand that it could be more than a free accommodation. It is also a way to learn from other people and see other view about common life and culture in other countries. Acquiring knowledge from others make us wiser.
